And what if we take advantage of Rendez-Vous aux Jardins 2026 to go on a quest for the most unusual gardens in the Île-de-France region? Specifically, in Verdelot, Seine-et-Marne, there hides a jewel with a surreal setting. Created in 1992, the Point du Jour nursery spans seven hectares and offers a greenery-filled backdrop that's utterly disorienting, which earned it the Jardin remarquable label. The owners have crafted a park packed with surprises and joy for both young and old: cabins with green roofs, an ancient theatre, the fairy salon, geese keeping watch over the lawn, rare trees and plants, orchards, land art, and a dreamlike garden.

In Verdelot, in the heart of the Petit Morin valley, lies a garden like no other: Le Point du Jour. Designated a "remarkable garden", it is one of the most unusual in the Paris region. With its perched huts, strange sculptures and plant cathedral, you're in for an out-of-the-ordinary stroll. [Read more]
And what could be more fitting than taking advantage of a distinctive stroll as part of Rendez-Vous aux Jardins ? This cultural event invites us to explore green spaces across the Île-de-France region, whether private or public, with perhaps even openings of places normally off-limits. Expect a range of activities throughout the weekend, which this year runs from 5 to 7 June 2026.
Designated a "Remarkable Garden," the Jardin le Point du Jour offers a breathtaking view over the Petit Morin valley!
It is a place of discovery, strolling, relaxation, escape and renewal, devoted entirely to poetry and wonder. Here, the dream of a life takes root...
Strolls among wild grasses, rare trees, sculptures—this place is lived as a green poem.
The pleasure of playing with nature without domesticating it, childhood memories, scent, atmosphere
This seven-hectare garden is our story, a garden out of time, shaped by two hearts and four hands
